Who knows. Because of this delay, the first Gebirgskanone Model 1915s started to arrive in April 1915, a whole year later than they were first planned to be delivered! Although perhaps a little physically fragile, the Gebirgskanone Model 1915 was a capable gun and earlier production would have been beneficial for the Austro-Hungarians. At that point Austro-Hungarian command decided to go ahead with the original design (after all, six versus five pieces didn’t make that much difference). They did this, but testing indicated that their new 7cm design was inferior to the 7.5cm version. It broke down into six pieces rather than five, and so Skoda were asked to produce a lighter 7cm version instead of their initial 7.5cm design. Originally designed by the Skoda company before the First World War began to fill a request to standardize and replace existing mountain guns, it was found to be the best candidate available… but it didn’t quite meet one of the design specifications. This Austro-Hungarian artillery piece had a somewhat troubled beginning. Austro-Hungarian Gebirgskanone Model 1915 It was popular thanks to being lightweight and reliable. It was also used in the Fiat 2000 heavy tank (only two of which were made), and was given to regular infantry when the mountaineers got new guns after the war. Firing 65mm shells, the Cannone da 65 could be broken down into five loads, or moved by horse with the simple trailing arm. Just make sure to have a rifleman or two with ammo box equipment to keep them supplied, because they have a relatively high rate of fire! Italian Cannone da 65 Model 13īeginning service with the Italian army a year before the war started in 1913, it was used throughout the First World War by mountain troops. Once built, they are used to provide direct fire support - they’re too long ranged to be used in an indirect fire role on Isonzo’s battlefields, but that’s what you have mortars for! They pack more punch than mortars, and when aimed carefully their splash damage can hit enemies in cover that would be impossible to hit with machine guns. In-game engineers can construct them at preset locations, like mortars and heavy machine guns.
